Nayanthara’s latest launch Annapoorani is making headlines for all the wrong reasons. Released on the 1st of December 2023, the film has been the talk of the town. A complaint is lodged by right-wing supporters claiming that the movie has certain scenes that hurt the religious sentiments of Hindus.
A scene in the film Annapoorani has created a huge buzz. In the Tamil language film, a character tells another that lord Ram used to eat meat during his exile to the forest (Vanvaas).
After its theatrical release, the film was being streamed on Netflix. However, due to immense criticism, the film has been pulled down from the site.
The complaint asserts that the film portrays controversial comments about lord Ram. The police official said on Thursday that the complaint was filed by Bajrang Dal at the Oshiwara police station around two days ago. The inquiry regarding the same is underway. They also stated how the movie promotes love jihad.
Another complaint was lodged by Ramesh Solanki, founder of the Hindu IT Cell at the Lokmanya Tilak Marg police station in South Bombay. The complaint states that it disrespects Lord Ram and was released deliberately to hurt the religious sentiments of Hindus.
Solanki also asserted a few scenes from the films. He mentioned how in the last particular scene, the priest’s daughter, played by Nayanthara, wears a hijab, performs namaz and then makes biryani.
There’s also another scene which states how Nayanthara’s friend in the film Farhaan cites that lord Ram and Maa Sita consumed meat during their vanvaas.
Another scene referred to by him is wherein Nayanthara doesn’t go to the temple instead goes to her friend’s place for Iftaari.
Ramesh Solanki has filed a complaint against actress Nayanthara, director Nilesh Krishnaa and a few others for hurting religious sentiments.
